The biggest restaurant event of the year in Southwest Florida is on its home stretch. Before reaching the finish line, I’m going in for a few more meals. Here is a peek at my Sizzle Dining stop at Blanc in Fort Myers.
Blanc is a small, cozy spot in a shopping center at the corner of Cypress Lake Drive and McGregor Blvd. The restaurant has changed ownership within the last year but much of the kitchen staff is the same. And they are doing some great things.
About Sizzle Dining In Southwest Florida
This regional dining event is intended to support local restaurants during what is traditionally the slowest time of the year for them. To lure diners, more than 100 restaurants all over Southwest Florida are offering pre-fix menus ranging from $19 to $59 for two, three and four-course meals.
So far, I’ve had lunch at Bicyclette Cookshop in Naples, and I still think about that dessert. Photos and more info here. Also, Stones Throw in Cape Coral. Those photos and menu info are here. Finally, Taberna Ole in Fort Myers. More on that one here.
Sizzle Dining Stop At Blanc And The Menu
For dinner, Blanc is offering 3-courses for $39. It was a lot of food and it was outstanding.
I like that the last course was an entree rather than a dessert. Dessert is still available, just as an extra charge. They also offered a wine-based cocktail special for Sizzle Dining. Take a look at the menu.
There were so many great options here. Always be sure to read the fine print on these menus. I almost missed the deal right under “THIRD”. It is for Blanc’s signature Skull Island Prawns. The cost to add one onto any entree is almost half of what it typically is.
